FROM JIM PEERENBOOM
Request for Costumes
from Actors
Actors: please look below
for what we are asking you to provide, if possible.
·
If you cannot provide this, no worries—just
let me know prior to Friday. We’re happy to provide what you cannot, but might
as well ask you so that we can save money and be sure it fits you. If something needs to be hemmed, we can
do that.
·
The color palette for the play is neutrals
(white, greys, black as well as purples/pinks and a little blue. I’ll try to note when you are welcome
to go away from the color palette.
·
In general we’ll be asking you to provide
your own footwear or look through what we have in stock that fits you.
·
Once we go into tech you will need to leave
this clothing at the theatre.
Think of it on loan during that time where it temporarily belongs to the
department.
·
If we have to buy something for you, ask
about buying it from us after the show.
If we no longer need it, we’ll sell it for 50% of the cost.

Ladder Queen:
Currently the department will provide your costume, other
than your shoes. Can you bring in
white, casual shoes that fit you well and will give you the mobility you need?
A Soul in Seven
All: Neutrals with some muted/dusty pink or purple accents. Warm clothes: pants, sweaters, sweatshirts, scarves, hats etc.
Saul and Lucy: Keep in mind that you are basically stationary, with Saul in her arms the entire show. So in terms of material, we don’t want sound when your clothes scrape against each other.
Knuckle Knock
Jeff: We have your costume already, but need to have
you try it on.
Adelaide: jeans or a heavy pant, flannel shirt,
overcoat in neutrals/dusty pink or purple.
